1 Kings 16:4 in Context — 1 Kings 16

2 Posto que te levantei do pó, e te pus por príncipe sobre meu povo Israel, e andaste no caminho de Jeroboão, e fizeste pecar a meu povo Israel, provocando-me à ira com os seus pecados;

3 Eis que varrerei a posteridade de Baasa, e a posteridade de sua casa; e tornarei a tua casa como a casa de Jeroboão, filho de Nebate.

4 O que de Baasa for morto na cidade, os cães lhe comerão; e o que dele for morto no campo, as aves do céu o comerão.

5 Os demais dos feitos de Baasa, e as coisas que fez, e sua fortaleza, não está tudo escrito no livro das crônicas dos reis de Israel?

6 E descansou Baasa com seus pais, e foi sepultado em Tirsa; e reinou em seu lugar Elá, seu filho.
